Thats the whole idea really!
We use our joint account for groceries only at the moment, but both like to add money from our personal accounts to our joint accounts.
Currently we have to move money from personal to joint, and then to savings…
Would love to remove that extra step!
Hi @Roothash1919 & welcome!
You can do this on Monzo already
Just tap on the Joint Savings account you wish to add money to, and then tap the ‘Add Money’ button. It’ll show where you wish to add the money from at the top of the screen, which you can then tap and change to be your Personal Account if you’d prefer.
If you have any issues doing this, please chat to us in the Monzo app.
You can only do this for Monzo pots, not external.
Interesting… thank you ill be reaching out because i definitely cant do this currently! When i click “choose account” it only gives me the joint account as an option, and the same for my husband
Also, ive just found a help topic on the app called “Which accounts and Pots can i move money from/to?”
Please see bullet point 3
You can move money between most account/pots at the moment, the only exceptions are:
- Some customers are unable to move money to and from instant access Pots
- You can’t move money to and from locked pots
- You can’t move money to and from Joint savings pots
- You can’t move money to and from Fixed Term Pots
- You can’t move money between Easy Access/ISA and other Pots
- You can’t move money to and from External accounts just yet
You need to press “move money” it’s not a bank transfer. You can definitely move to joint Monzo savings.
Yep, even when i click “Move money” from my personal account i can only choose our joint account (not savings) or my personal savings account
Trust me - I have tried every way possible
^^
What do you mean by ‘External’ - external to Monzo?
I am trying to move money from my Monzo Personal Current Account, to my Monzo Joint Savings Account
Pots supplied by Monzo you can move money to.
There are pots supplied by companies such as Shawbrook, you can’t move money direct to.
Yes luckily thats not what im trying to do
Steps taken on the below shot:
Click into Monzo joint savings account
Click add money
Click on the pre selected account to move money from (pre selected to be our joint current account)
Options given:
I can only add money to my joint savings account from our joint current account. Not my personal monzo current account
Next steps taken
Go back to Personal monzo current account
Click “move money”
Click “Select account”
Options given:
Please note this is my persinal savings account, our joint savings account is called “Future”
Revels - ignore me. I get it now
We have the “Easy Access Savings pot” - assuming that is a 3rd party run savings account?
In your pot list, tap in and scroll down
Top one you won’t be able to move to with the “move money” on your card, the bottom one should appear.
Thanks so much and apologies it took me so long to get there - i thought you meant “External current account”
Just opened up to instant access Monzo savings, which has a higher interest rate anyway!
Thanks again!!
